Zhengyao didn't even look at the "Eight Styles of Flying Clouds" gifted by Hua Qingyue, so he stuffed it directly into his arms. Of course, it wasn't that he didn't appreciate the martial arts secret book presented by Hua Qingyue, but that he felt

Now that I don’t fight, I don’t take the martial arts champion test, and I don’t run for election as the leader of the martial arts league. This kind of awesome secret book that only appears in martial arts novels is of little use to me for the time being, so I put it in without even reading it.

As for the other dry food and other things, Zhengyao really enjoyed it, gnawing on it while walking, very cool and unrestrained.

Ning An, on the other hand, was pouting along the way. Prince Jing tried to test her several times to find out why, but Ning An always rolled his eyes. This made Prince Jing feel ashamed, and he was really asking for trouble.

Yes, maybe even Ning An herself didn't know why she couldn't be happy when she saw Zhengyao and Hua Qingyue's reluctant faces when they were about to leave the village.

Xiao Xi on the side didn't know how to comfort her. As for the eunuchs like Liu Tao and Feng Bao, they naturally didn't dare to intervene and had to follow her from a distance. They knew the princess's temper best.

He finally found a pavilion and sat down to rest for a while, but Ning An didn't say a word. Even Zheng Yao was a little confused as to why this barbaric woman who usually kept chattering was suddenly so quiet. For this reason, he went out of his way to

He looked at Liu Yan and winked at him. Liu Yan looked innocent when he saw this, as if he was saying I didn't do anything.

Just like that, Zhengyao and Prince Jing chatted for a few words, and everyone else found a place to rest for a while, and then started on their way again. On the way down, everyone didn't speak and just kept going. But this was okay.

It was not a bad thing, and before the end of the day, I returned to Wuchanyuan.

Just entering Wu Chan Monastery, I saw that the whole temple was already in chaos. The monks were running around in a hurry. It seemed that something big had happened. But just when Zheng Yao and others were about to enter the main hall, the abbot, the old monk Hue, finally

Appeared in front of everyone.

"Amitabha! How wonderful! Your Majesty, you are back! It's so hard for me to find you!" The old monk from Hue's face had wrinkled up and he almost burst into tears in front of everyone.

When King Jing saw this, he felt embarrassed immediately, so he stepped forward and said, "I feel deeply guilty for causing trouble to the abbot master!"

In fact, speaking of it, the kidnapping case that occurred in Wuchanyuan should be settled with Wuchanyuan. However, Prince Jing is also a very easy-going person. Now that the matter has been clarified, he will not pursue the responsibility casually. Besides, these monks

It's also quite hard.

"What the hell! Please forgive me, Your Majesty! To be honest, during the period when King Jing was missing, another difficult thing happened in the temple." Hue looked even more ashamed and became confused when he spoke.

They couldn't help but tremble.

When King Jing and others heard this, they immediately became serious, especially Zhengyao, who all looked at the abbot of Hue with doubts on their faces.

"Oh? Master Abbot, please explain what happened?"

Prince Jing immediately asked. Since there was a difficult question, he naturally had to pursue the question. These days, Prince Jing had become very interested in solving cases and reasoning. Seeing that Zhengyao had solved two cases in succession, he seemed to be showing off his skills.

The old monk from Hue looked at everyone with an embarrassed look, then took a step closer, and said in a low voice embarrassedly: "Amitabha, just... the day after you disappeared, King Jing, I went to

...then I sent people around...looking for you, but unexpectedly...the firewood shed in the backyard suddenly caught fire."

"It turns out there was a fire in the woodshed! It's not a big deal. Just renovate one and it's over!" Ning An didn't understand either. This was just a fire in the woodshed. Is it necessary to look so serious?

"What the female donor said is true. A fire in the woodshed is a small matter, but burning someone to death is a big deal!" The abbot looked ashamed. Huiyuan stole the Jade Buddha, Prince Jing disappeared in the temple, and the temple was on fire.

Someone also died among them, and this series of things happened one after another. If this matter was spread, the name of his century-old temple would be considered over.

"What? Someone died?"

Hearing what the old monk from Hue said, everyone couldn't help but frown. There have been a lot of strange things happening recently. First there was theft, then there was kidnapping, then there was the brother-killing in the village to seize the throne, and now the temple is set on fire.

He also committed murder. Each plot became more serious than the last. How did the world-famous Mount Emei become a place where crimes frequently occur?

"Yes...yes! It's a dead person."

Zheng Yao saw that the old monk Hue flashed his eyes when answering everyone's doubts. It seemed that there was something inside, so he immediately asked: "Who died? What else do you have to hide? Tell me quickly!"

When Hue saw Zheng Yao asking such a question, he immediately stopped hiding anything. After all, he had experienced Zheng Yao's intelligence and wisdom, so he immediately said: "Amitabha, you are so good! To be honest, the person who died was the one who stole the Jade Buddha.

The person is Huiyuan!"

What? Huiyuan is dead?

Everyone was surprised again. At this time, Zhengyao finally understood why the abbot of Hue was evasive. It turned out that the person who died was Huiyuan. The prince personally handed him over to his custody and punishment. Unexpectedly, he was burned to death by fire.

, naturally felt unable to explain to the prince, so he hesitated.

"Then do you know why Huiyuan was in the woodshed? Also, did he say anything after we left?" Zhengyao did not hold Hue accountable for his poor supervision at this moment. Instead, he asked some seemingly irrelevant questions.

Urgent question.

Although King Jing didn't understand what Zhengyao meant by asking, he thought that Zhengyao must give him another surprise, so he looked at the old monk Hue with the same doubtful eyes.

Ning An knew that Zheng Yao had many evil ideas, and was looking forward to what Zheng Yao's purpose was in asking. As for others, of course, they became spectators just like Ning An.

"Back to the prince and donor Li! In fact, Huiyuan was locked in the solitary room next to the woodshed by us to repent. We didn't want to take the firewood shed, and the solitary room next to it also caught fire. At that time, no one thought that the solitary room was on fire.

There were still people, but Huiyuan didn't call for help, so... As for what Huiyuan said after everyone left, I'm not sure about this. I have to ask Hui Qing, who delivers food to him every day."

The old monk from Hue explained everything in detail, which was considered as an apology for his own negligence.

"Your Majesty, I think we should go take a look at Hui Yuan's body now. Maybe there will be other discoveries. In short, I think this fire is not as simple as an accident." After listening to the words of the old monk from Hue, Zheng Yao pondered for a moment.

, and then said to Prince Jing in a very cautious manner.

"What? It's not an accident?" Now the old monk Hue couldn't help it. Could it be that someone set the fire deliberately?

Prince Jing nodded and agreed with Zhengyao's suggestion: "Well, what Zhengyao said makes sense. I also think this fire is a bit suspicious, and Huiyuan's death is too strange. Quickly, take us to see Huiyuan's body.

.”

Now that King Jing has spoken, no one dares to be negligent in the slightest, so Hue Hua led everyone straight to the Zen room without pausing for a moment.

When they arrived at the door of a Zen room, everyone stopped.

Zhengyao looked at the place covered with white cloth in the Zen room with some displeasure, then looked at the old monk from Hue and said, "Have you touched Huiyuan's body?"

"This..." Seeing Zhengyao's unkind eyes, even the old monk who had nothing to lose could not be as calm as Mount Tai in the face of danger. Hue hesitated and said: "It has been two days since Huiyuan was burned to death, if not

If the body is taken out, how can the spirit of the deceased live in peace? It is impossible to just let his body stay there forever."

The old monk from Hue was right, but in Zheng Yao's view, moving the body without permission would be tantamount to destroying the first strong evidence at the crime scene. As a result, it would be even more difficult to solve the case.

Of course, Zheng Yao also understood that the old monk Hue was helpless, so he murmured to himself: "I hope the situation is not as bad as imagined!"

Although everyone didn't know what Zhengyao was worried about, seeing that Zhengyao had already stepped into the house, they naturally followed him in.

"Haiyun, I leave it to you."

As soon as he entered the house, Zhengyao immediately informed Yuan Haiyun to inspect the body. In this way, Yuan Haiyun looked like a professional assassin at this moment. Zhengyao, Liu Yan, Zhang Cheng and others looked at the body up and down.
